Correspondence OF THE DEMOCRAT

from forty to fifty left Salt Lake at p. m.
and at Ogden were joined by large num-
Der OF the brethren OF that place. They
passed the time merrily, chatting and
yarn telling until 80, when they arrived
at Park City. Members OF the Park City
lodges, fifty strong, headed by Wiseman's
brass band, met them at the depot and
escorted them to the Lodge Hall. The
sight was an imposing one, and the feel
ing OF love and fraternity that showed
made it one to be remembered by all
who We're spectators. The main OBJ
ject OF the fraternal visit was
the forming OF an encampment
under the laws OF fraternity. Ii another is
instituted Grand Encampment can be
organized. The prospects for this are
| favorable, for large number slgnihed
their willingness and desire to become
members, enough to start an enCamp-
ment on Il good foundation. The eXer-
cises in the Hall were very pleasant,
but mainly business of interest to Odd
Fellows. The exercises over, at IL 80
all adjourned to ,..e room below, where
an elegant collation. was spread. One
| hundred and t o." Odd Fellows with
friends sat dow to the long tables and
made merr until after O'Clock.
Going ba, to the Lodge Room,
the visiting brethren were welcomed to
Park City in most eloquent
address by Past Grand Master Edwin
Pierce. The response by Deputy Grand
Master j. j. Thomas was listened to with
interest by all. This was followed by
the following toasts, all delivered in an
easy, pleasant and eloquent manner

| A hearty vote OF thanks was then ten
dered the Park City lodges for the ele-
| giant manner in which they received
their visiting brothers, and for the frater-
nal spirit shown by it. j. j. Thomas in
vited the Park City lodges to pay the
Salt Lake lodges return visit rs soon as
| possible, and allow them an opportunity
to show their appreciation OF the manner
in which they had been received. Grand
Master Culmer emphasized the invita-
ton by saying that he would take it upon
himself to at once make arrangements
for transportation and for their reception
The excursion on the whole was an i'm
mense success, and cannot but result in
great good to the Order, ii in nothing
else than binding last the links of friend
ship between the lodges of Salt Lake,
Ogden and Park City.

Another sad accident to chronicle 4:
This time the death OF VIM. Reed, who
was killed at the Ontario mine No 3 last
night about seven O'Clock. From what
we can learn at this early hour, it seems
that Reed with his partner was working
on the 400 level, or just above, and in
some manner he happened to fall in the
manway and went down distance of 1l5
feet. His partner was away from him
when he fell and knew nothing OF it until
Matt Connolly, the night boss, came
around, and missing Reed asked for him,
and not being able to find him
they descended the manway and
found him at the bottom,
breathing his last. He lived but about
! fifteen minutes after being found Just
how the accident occurred can never be
known, but it opposed, from the rocks
! and broken cards at the bottom OF the
